There was an imperceptible smile at the corner of Lu Huai's mouth.
His words implied profound meaning: "Thank you auntie for your understanding."
Now that Su Lan had agreed, Lu Huai could pretend to pursue Ye Chu.
Of course, what Lu Huai and Su Lan said must not be let Ye Chu know.
Ye Chu is very clever. If she knew it, she might have guessed his purpose. That way, things seem a little more difficult.
Therefore, Lu Huai had to make sure that Su Lan would not tell Ye Chu.
Lu Huai has a set of reasons of her own: "Ye Chu is young. If she knows about this, it may affect her study and life..."
Su Lan was thoughtful, Ye Chu hadn't experienced any setbacks, they had always protected her very well, and they really didn't have the ability to cope with all this.
"Don't worry, I will keep it secret." Su Lan quickly understood what Lu Huai meant.
Lu Huai smiled.
Well, the first step in his plan has been successful.
The two talked here for a while, and Ye Chu stood on the other side of the room, a little anxious.
She knew that she came back too late this time, and Su Lan waited for a long time. Therefore, Lu Huai must give her mother an explanation.
Ye Chu couldn't come close to listen, so he could only look at Su Lan's expression from a distance.
At first, Su Lan was a little angry. After listening to Lu Huai's words, she was very nervous, but then she seemed relieved...
It seems that Lu Huai has successfully persuaded her mother, and he doesn't know what he said to her mother.
Their conversation was over. After saying goodbye, Lu Huai walked to the door, leaning the black umbrella on the wall, he picked it up, and was about to leave.
Ye Chu ran over and stopped behind Lu Huai. His movements also stopped, and he turned his head and glanced at her.
Ye Chu's eyes were clear, looking at Lu Huai. Lu Huai turned his head to look at her, the night was cold and cold, and their eyes met.
No one spoke in the room, only the sound of rain coming in from outside the window, and the two looked at each other in silence.
Lu Huai was about to go back, and Ye Chu spoke up.
Ye Chu's voice was quiet: "Lu Huai, be careful on the road."
Lu Huai nodded slightly, his voice low: "Ye Chu, good night."
The rain was still falling, and Lu Huai turned around and walked into the rain under an umbrella. His back was cold and tall, and extremely silent, but he could always give Ye Chu an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.
Past and Present.
It has not changed.
…
The night was heavy, the wind and rain outside the window were heavy, and the rain pounded hard on the window, hurriedly and quickly.
Qiao Yunsheng was sitting in the room. He didn't turn on the light. The room was dark, without a trace of light, and the atmosphere was extremely depressed.
A trace of coldness flashed across Qiao Yunsheng's eyes, and he was lost in thought.
Tonight, he asked Gu Ping to catch Qin Xiao, but he didn't expect Qin Xiao to run into the Peace Hotel and seek refuge from Lu Huai.
Black market competitions have been held so many times, and such things have never happened before.
The person who wins the first place in the competition has always entered Hongmen to do things, driven by Hongmen. The appearance of Qin Xiao changed all of this.
Qin Xiao refused to enter Hongmen, and then asked the Peace Hotel for help. This was clearly a shame to Hongmen.
However, Qin Xiao had an ordinary family background and no background. How could such a person dare to oppose Hongmen
Unless, there is some power hidden behind him, instructing him to do so.
Except for Lu Huai, who would have such a plan and courage.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yunsheng's fists were slightly clenched, and his eyes became colder.
Qiao Yunsheng suddenly remembered that on the first day of the black market competition, Shen Jiu revealed something in the competition ground.
Some of the contestants have been trained and they are all twins.
If one person is injured, replace that person's twin brother on the field.
This matter was specially arranged by Qiao Yunsheng, so that he could control the gambling game of the black market competition, and the people he pressed would never lose.
But Shen Jiu cut off his money, found a reason, and threw his trained people into the patrol room.
These people were not released until the end of the game.
At that time, Qiao Yunsheng was very angry, thinking that Shen Jiu just discovered this incident by accident, because Shen Jiu had always been at odds with him, so Shen Jiu would do this.
Now that I think about it carefully, Shen Jiu might have been instructed by Lu Huai to do so.
Shen Jiu would not come to the black market for no reason, and Shen Jiu and Lu Huai had a very good relationship. If Lu Huai asked him to do this, Shen Jiu had no reason to refuse.
…
A series of things seem to be linked together.
Qiao Yunsheng's brows faintly frowned. Lu Huai is so concerned about the black market competition. What exactly is he going to do
At this moment, something quickly flashed through Qiao Yunsheng's mind, and his mind was startled.
Could Lu Huai have opinions on the black market competition
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the rain fell along the edge of the window, and Qiao Yunsheng's heart sank slowly.
Shen Jiu exposed the shady game, Qin Xiao resisted, and sought asylum from the Peace Hotel...
If this is the case, all this seems to be explainable.
But Qiao Yunsheng had never seen Lu Huai in the competition field, unless Lu Huai disguised himself to hide his true face.
If Qiao Yunsheng knew that Lu Huai was coming, he would never take it lightly, and would definitely increase his vigilance and take precautions early.
Presumably Lu Huai knew this very well, so he didn't come forward, only secretly planning.
By the time I found out, everything was too late and I couldn't reverse it anymore.
The tea on the table has been on the table for a long time, the heat has long gone, and it feels cold to the touch, but Qiao Yunsheng didn't notice it.
He moved his gaze downwards, held up the tea cup, and gently lifted the lid.
At this time, Qiao Yunsheng didn't seem to be able to hold it firmly, the tea lid suddenly fell to the ground, and the ground was full of debris.
Qiao Yunsheng didn't care, he looked out the window, his gaze stopped there.
A shallow gap opened in the window, moist air poured in, and the icy wind blew in. It was freezing cold.
Qiao Yunsheng's complexion was as usual, and he looked unusually calm.
He hasn't moved for a long time.
In the heavy darkness, the room fell into silence.
…
That night, Qin Xiao escaped from Qiao Yunsheng's pursuit and arrived at the Peace Hotel safely.
As soon as Qin Xiao entered the Peace Hotel, someone immediately greeted him.
Lu Huai had arranged a room for Qin Xiao at the Peace Hotel so that he could rest well.
It was raining heavily outside and the temperature dropped sharply.
Along the way, Qin Xiao was avoiding the pursuit of Qiao Yunsheng's men. It was clear that there was a downpour, and the rain fell on him, but he didn't realize it.
After arriving at the Peace Hotel, Qin Xiao realized that his whole body was soaked.
After Qin Xiao was led to the room, the man told him that there was hot water in the room and prepared clothes.
If the third master returns, he will notify Qin Xiao immediately.
Qin Xiao thanked him and closed the door.
According to the third master's plan, he has arrived at the Peace Hotel. The next thing, I hope it will be as smooth as tonight.
He believes that the ban on the black market competition will succeed in the end.
Just now, Qin Xiao ran in a hurry, not caring about the wound on his body. Now the pace has stopped, and the pain in the injured area has increased.
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, and he took off his already soaked clothes. The straight back is exposed, the muscles are tight and the lines are smooth.
He simply treated the wound, took a shower, and put on a new set of clothes.
Soon, Lu Huai arrived at the Peace Hotel, and he walked in hastily.
The first thing is to go to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao and Lu Huai met, and they both knew that tonight is important. But Qin Xiao has passed the difficult time, and the remaining road will be better.
Lu Huai knew that Qin Xiao had suffered a lot of injuries. He asked, "Do I need to call a doctor?"
Qin Xiao smiled: "I can't die."
Outside the window, torrential rain still hit Shanghai Beach.
The rain kept beating on the glass, banging.
Qin Xiao said: "The journey went smoothly. Qiao Liu's people did not shoot."
Lu Huai explained: "Qiao Liu will look for you, just because he wants to subdue, he will naturally not hurt you."
Qin Xiao nodded.
Lu Huai knew that Qiao Liu was cunning, and there was another reason why he didn't kill Qin Xiao.
When Qin Xiao rejected Qiao Liu, he lost his face. Qiao Liu wanted to catch Qin Xiao and tortured him in other ways.
Lu Huai continued: "In a few days, we will hold a press conference at the Chinachem Hotel to announce the inside story of the black market competition."
Lu Huai already had plans.
By then, Shanghai's most famous newspaper reporters will come, so as to maximize the influence of this incident.
Hearing this, Qin Xiao looked at Lu Huai: "I don't know if I can help the Third Young Master?"
Lu Huai said lightly: "You only need to tell the inside story of the black market competition at the press conference, and I will take care of the next thing."
Qin Xiao looked resolute: "Don't worry, the three young masters, I won't let you down."
Lu Huai knew Qin Xiao's temperament, since Qin Xiao made a promise, he would do his best to complete it.
In order to pay for a brother's medicine, Qin Xiao will go to the black market competition.
He has already reached cooperation with Lu Huai and will do every step well.
This is Qin Xiao, who is extremely skilled but never arrogant, and he is a man of love and righteousness.
Lu Huai understood that Qin Xiao, as a key figure, would find a way to attack him after he escaped.
Lu Huai said: "These days, if you stay at the Peace Hotel, we will definitely take care of you."
As long as Qin Xiao is in Shanghai, Lu Huai will not let Qiao Liu hurt him.
Qin Xiao thanked him, got up and left, and returned to his room.
As Lu Huai said, a few days later, Chinachem Hotel announced an announcement.
The champion of this black market competition will reveal to everyone the shady behind the black market competition, and the person behind him is Lu Sanshao.
A few people have heard about the black market competition, but they don't know the specific details.
Black market competitions have always been mysterious, and even if they have the intention to explore, there is no way to go.
Many reporters moved after hearing the news. After they heard the news, they immediately sniffed out the secrets hidden inside.
Nowadays, the black market competition that few people know about is about to be made public in front of everyone, how can it not be exciting.
Those who have experienced black market competitions naturally know how cruel and dark this competition is.
Everyone fights for their lives, but if they are not careful, they will lose their lives in the ring.
Some participated voluntarily, and some were forced to participate because of last resort.
In the black market competition, there are a small group of survivors.
Although they had the intention to expose, no one supported them. Even standing in front of the public, waiting for them is a dead end.
The champion of this competition will expose the shady, and the Third Young Master will support him.
Moreover, the place where the press conference will be held is the Chinachem Hotel. The previous assassination of Chinachem Hotel caused a lot of trouble.
It happens to be in such a place to expose such unfair facts, which can comfort people the most.
The news was also published in major newspapers and magazines in Shanghai.
"The black market martial arts champion wants to reveal the inside story of the game at the Chinachem Hotel."
"The black market competes for fate? Is human life a horrible thing?"
"There is another incident in Hongmen. In the martial arts field, which is right and wrong?"
…
All of a sudden, people in Shanghai were talking about the black market competition.
Everyone has their own guesses.
What is the purpose of Hongmen's black market competition? Why does an inhumane match like black market competition exist
However, if you want to know the truth, you can only wait until the press conference of the Chinachem Hotel.
That day will soon arrive.
The press conference was held at nine o'clock. At eight o'clock, the entrance of the Chinachem Hotel was already crowded with reporters.
The black market competition is a big deal.
Reporters have always pursued truth, and they want to record the truth of the black market competition.
When the press conference started, the reporters sitting in the audience were waiting patiently.
They are not only waiting for the champion of the black market competition, but also a clear truth.
Qin Xiao stepped onto the stage, his face was tough, his figure was firm, and sitting there would be extremely convincing.
Qin Xiao glanced, his eyes fell forward and his tone was calm.
"I am Qin Xiao, the champion of this black market competition."
He paused, and first talked about his experience of participating in the black market competition.
"My brother was seriously ill and needed a high cost of medicine. In order to treat him, I participated in a black market competition."
"But the contestants must sign a death agreement, as long as they are in the ring, life or death is irrelevant."
"..."
The atmosphere at the scene was serious, and the reporters were all holding pens and quickly remembering.
As long as you sign the death agreement, your life will be involuntary.
The rules of the black market competition are so cruel, how many people have paid the price of their lives.
Qin Xiao continued: "The black market competition is actually a competition that ignores human life and the law. Countless people have died in the arena."
"Those gamblers place their bets on the contestants, and the contestants fight for their lives to win, but it is just a bet by others."
"What the audience want to see most is those people fighting in the arena. Those who enter the competition arena will become greedy and violent."
"..."
As soon as the reporter's hand stopped, the tip of the pen was stuck into the paper, and his fingers trembled slightly.
There are many casinos in Shanghai, but the bet is on human life
They have never heard of such a thing. The fight of the players in the black market competition turned out to be just a gamble in the eyes of others.
The black market competition is extremely cruel, and now it is so terrifying just to hear it. If you see it with your own eyes, it must be even more frightening.
Qin Xiao's expression was firm, and he finally made one point.
"How can such a game continue to exist in Shanghai?"
…
Another group of reporters was standing by the door of Chinachem Hotel, and a group of people appeared at the end of Long Street.
The relatives of those people died in this black market competition, and they were brought over by Shen Jiu.
They had just experienced the departure of their relatives, the separation of flesh and blood, and there was no smile on their faces.
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became serious.
The reporter saw Shen Jiuye of the Qinghui and immediately stepped forward.
Shen Jiu's expression was heavy. He explained to reporters: "These are all the families of the victims. Their relatives died in the black market competition."
As soon as the voice fell, the reporters present were startled.
Their faces sank, as if shocked by the news.
The faces of the family members were full of grief, and their expressions were clearly visible.
The pain of losing a loved one is unimaginable.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding voices stopped, and the reporters stood in a daze, also affected by the heavy atmosphere at this time.
Shen Jiu went on to say: "The black market competition is an inhumane competition. They regard human life as a waste. They only care about their interests, but they have never considered the feelings of those contestants."
At this time, there was a slight sob in the crowd.
With the sound of the sound, these people couldn't help crying.
"Some fathers have lost their sons, some wives have their husbands dead, and some children will never see their father."
"Black market competitions should not continue to exist, and must be resolutely resisted."
Shen Jiu's tone was firm and beyond doubt.
Shen Jiu's words and the reaction of his family members infected the people present. The scene was silent, and their mood became extremely heavy.
Seeing the scene in front of them with their own eyes, the reporters made up their minds that they must not let this cruel game continue.
Only by letting more people know, can we have greater power to change this matter.
